Today I bought 3 tops in a 'normal' clothing shop. Okay they were 1xl and 2xl, but hey! Its nice to not have to go to the plus girls shop and buy their 1xl and their 2xl. Getting there! Also my belly fat is shrinking, I can now wear my jeans without shapewear underneath. Feeling good

Accountability is my NSV today. I've been terrible lately with control and accountability. Today I am accountable the way I was accountable when I first joined MFP. If you don't see my food log at the end of the day, yell at me (but you will, I promise!) And it will be accurate!11

Great NSVs!0

Accountability is the reason that I joined the 'Fearless October' challenge - since I get to put the info out there for all to see, I don't get to hide! So far, I have slipped a couple of times, but this has been the best month for me in terms of sticking to this WOE.1

@ccrdragon..my sorry *kitten* joined in the first week then promptly forgot (decided not to participate in?) the challenge. I can't seem to keep up with those. I've tried almost every month since I started here but always stop.0

@RowdysLady, I have joined several out in the other world (general forum ) but this is the first that I have actually kept up with. 2

Today's NSV: went out in my dress and tights... halfway down the road they started slipping down badly, and I mean pulling them up in unladylike fashion and holding on to them for dear life. So I have slimmed out of my favourite tights.
I was not sure weather to be embarrassed over my predicament as I tried to find a place where I could take them off on or really proud. My SO found it hilarious of course.9 -
not sure if this an nsv or simply an observation, but here goes. I have noticed that since I have pretty much cut sugars out of my diet that my taste buds seem to have reset... for example, I was eating salad (no dressing, so just veggies) and it hit me as to how sweet most of the veggies in the salad tasted - I had never thought of veggies like lettuce and carrots as sweet, but they actually are. I think with the SAD, we must get accustomed to the quantities of sugar that are consumed and our tastes get jaded so that something must be super-sweet for it to taste sweet any more. With this WOE, and little to no sugars, that fades away and we can actually taste things the way that nature intended us to taste them!11

@ccrdragon I have noticed the same myself. My tastebuds have really changed. A lot of the food I used to like I now no longer enjoy. I don't have to drench my salads in dressings no more, although I am partial to olive oil and balsamic vinegar with a pinch of salt and maybe a squeeze of lemon. Most chocolates are too sweet for me. I tend to go for more savoury options.
Everything tastes so different I now use less spices than before.2 -
After I stopped eating added sugar two years ago even celery taste sweet. I recently tried Paul Newman's Balsamic Vinegar salad dressing. The spice was a bit much the first time but by the third time I was in love with it. Thankfully McDonald's carry it.2

I thought this same thing when I was eating cucumbers the other day -- I thought I might have been losing it.
Another observation -- my daughter was ill and I gave her a chewable ibuprofen. Went to kiss her goodnight and about puked at how sugar-tasting the ibuprofen must have been. I literally was scrubbing my lips off after I left the room. Who knew?!?2
